Reviews [ edit ]
Writing in The Daily Telegraph Geoffrey Norris said, "There is in Lewis's playing a strong physicality, a firm connection between his deep thinking about the music and his articulation of it. He knows and can define its character, and can show how its rhythmic, harmonic and melodic components coalesce. This was playing of intellectual rigour and imaginative vigour."
In a 2016 interview with The Guardian Legendary Stardust Cowboy .[13]
